Community Investigator Division

The Community Investigator Division (or CID) is responsible for investigating crimes that occur on property owned, leased, or operated by the University of Minnesota. CID personnel are assigned geographical areas of responsibility. They also function as crime prevention officers for their areas. This combination ensures that the officers take an active roll in preventing and reducing the crimes that are happening in their area. The CID officers have a strong working relationship with faculty, staff, and students in their areas so that there are open lines of communication when it comes to addressing crime and safety issues.
